You are not ovulating. That's why you aren't having periods and why you
are not pregnant. Depo should be cleared out of the systtem by a year,
1-1/2 max. Your doctor should ahve expressed some concern about the
fact that you aren't having normal cycles. Call him back to get
evaluated, or consider another gyn if he doesn't get you in.
